I was born January 1970 and my mother was crazy about Rod Stewart so I grew up listening to him a lot! And I love him till this day and I’m 54. Anyway, my mom used to play the guitar and I remember when I was little, she would play this song and sing it home.

Such fantastic memories of Rod Stewarts music and High School in the 70's. He's definately a legend and to this day is still one of my favorites. ❤ Stay safe

Fell in love with Rod Stewart after hearing this song for the first time. I was 14 LOL!!!

Each of the six gentlemen that you see on stage is notable enough to have their own wiki page. That's Ronnie Wood from the Rolling Stones on guitar.

The band was The Faces featuring in addition to Rod Stewart, (pre-Rolling Stones) Ron Wood and Kenny Jones....

Love this tune. Rod is still one of the greats. So many good songs to choose from.

Rod Stewart, also Faces (featuring Rod Stewart). Faces was Rod's band for a long time. A good gospel / soul cover is by Rod and Jeff Beck, "People Get Ready." Jeff Beck started off as one of the 3 top guitarists that circulated through the Yardbirds (with Clapton and Jimmy Page). When Beck split off to start his own band, he picked Rod Stewart to sing. That band broke up, and IIRC Rod joined Small Faces, which then became Faces. Rod and Faces had contracts with different labels, so they worked together, but did separate albums.

I've always thought using curse words shows a lack of intelligence. One of the things I love about older songs is the songwriters finding ways to get their point across without actually coming out and baldly stating it. They had to have a pretty good command of the language to be able to do that.

"Maggie May" expresses the ambivalence and contradictory emotions of a boy involved in a relationship with an older woman and was written from Stewart's own experience. In the January 2007 issue of Q magazine, Stewart recalled: "Maggie May was more or less a true story, about the first woman I had sex with, at the 1961 Beaulieu Jazz Festival." The woman's name was not "Maggie May"; Stewart has stated that the name was taken from "an old Liverpudlian song about a prostitute." I was 12 years in 1971, and listening to the lyrics of this song caused my imagination to go into overdrive. On NYC’s 77 WABC Radio’s Top 100 ofc1971, Maggie May was the #3 song.

To weave words together well in order to evoke feelings and images and ideas is an art form. When too many curse words are added, it just shows a lack of imagination and talent and muddies the message.

It's hard to believe this song is over 50 years old (released in 1971). Rod Stewart has always had such an interesting voice and he's still going strong. The song itself always reminds me of The Statler Brothers ;1970 song "Bed of Roses": kzbin.info/www/bejne/gp6TYoScq7yWr9ksi=etAqXIQBzbXLYOch. Thanks for playing this & your comments.

Watched your Jeff Beck reaction, Rod Stewart rose to,prominence for many as the lead singer in the Jeff Beck Group. You heard jazz fusion Jeff, but there is a lot of blues rock Jeff to discover. Morning Dew from the Truth record is a good place to start and hear that combo

One of the guitarists on stage is Ronnie Wood. But he’s been in a new band for the past 49 years or so-the Rolling Stones.

The music business is a cut throat business, some bands & there members are friends, and some bands they just don’t get along. I’ve been playing the drums my whole life and a buddy of mine is a “Rolling Stone Mag top 50 drummer , Played on damn near a dozen alums -1/2 went gold , Grammy nominated multiple times , and he got financially screwed by the leader of the band that he had known for over 4 decades playing together then got ousted As the song goes, “rock ‘n’ roll is a vicious game”.

I think you didn't quite get the story from 'Maggie May'. It was about a schoolboy having sex with a married woman. He had to rush to school as she kept leading him on. He loved her but she didn't care about him. It was a sad story.
